Amarilio Co-Chairs Chicago Bar Association's Special Bylaws Revisions Committee
Taft Chicago partner Jonathan Amarilio was selected to co-chair the Chicago Bar Association’s (CBA) Special Bylaws Revisions Committee. The last time amendments were made to the bylaws was in 2013. After a comprehensive review, the proposed amendments were passed by a large majority earlier this month. Among many revisions, the resolution reflects changes such as the replacement of gender-specific pronouns, allowing board members and committees to meet in-person or remotely, and the removal of a requirement that only standard mail be used for notices of meetings and other business to CBA members.
